African-American playwright August Wilson honored on 'forever' stamp – People's World


USPS
The 44th stamp in the Black Heritage series honors playwright August Wilson (April 27, 1945-October 2, 2005), the “the theater’s poet of Black America,” who brought fresh perspectives and previously unheard voices to the American stage.

Sacha Baron Cohen played 60s activist Abbie Hoffman in Aaron Sorkin s
The Trial of the Chicago 7.
Your association with Abbie Hoffman goes back decades …
When I was 20, I was staying at the YMCA in downtown Atlanta researching a thesis on Jewish involvement in the civil rights movement of the 60s. Abbie Hoffman was one of a bunch of Jewish radicals who went down South to support voter registration for people of color. So I knew about him from the age of 20. Then, 13 years ago, I heard that Spielberg was making a movie about the Chicago Seven and, with characteristic chutzpah, I called him up and asked if I could audition. He was concerned that I wouldn t be able to do the accent because all he d seen me do was the first ....
